Beans, Pinto

Our pinto beans are medium in size and oval-shaped, with mottled beige and brown skins. Pinto beans are the most widely produced bean in the United States and are one of the most popular in the Americas, especially Mexico. Easy to prepare and a must-have staple for the pantry, pinto beans have gained some of their popularity from their rich nutritional profile -- these beans are high in fiber and folate, and their combined amino acids form a complete protein source, making them an excellent substitute for animal proteins. Studies show that pinto beans may reduce bone loss and promote a healthy metabolism.
